DESCRIPTION
For 2.4 GHz frequency WiFi devices:
• Select 802.11b Only to allow only IEEE 802.11b compliant WiFi devices to associate with the
WX Device.
• Select 802.11g Only to allow only IEEE 802.11g compliant WiFi devices to associate with the
WX Device.
• Select 802.11n Only to allow only IEEE 802.11n compliant WiFi devices to associate with the
WX Device.
• Select 802.11b/g Mixed to allow either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WiFi devices
to associate with the WX Device. The transmission rate of your WX Device might be
reduced.
• Select 802.11b/g/n Mixed to allow IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g or IEEE 802.11n compliant WiFi
devices to associate with the WX Device. The transmission rate of your WX Device might be
reduced.
• Select 802.11b/g/n/ax Mixed to allow IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g, IEEE 802.11n or IEEE
802.11ax compliant WiFi devices to associate with the WX Device. The transmission rate of
your WX Device might be reduced.
For 5 GHz frequency WiFi devices:
• Select 802.11a Only to allow only IEEE 802.11a compliant WiFi devices to associate with the
WX Device.
• Select 802.11n Only to allow only IEEE 802.11n compliant WiFi devices to associate with the
WX Device.
• Select 802.11ac Only to allow only IEEE 802.11ac compliant WiFi devices to associate with
the WX Device.
• Select 802.11a/n Mixed to allow either IEEE 802.11a or IEEE 802.11n compliant WiFi devices
to associate with the WX Device. The transmission rate of your WX Device might be
reduced.
• Select 802.11n/ac Mixed to allow either IEEE 802.11n or IEEE 802.11ac compliant WiFi
devices to associate with the WX Device. The transmission rate of your WX Device might be
reduced.
• Select 802.11a/n/ac Mixed to allow IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11n or IEEE 802.11ac compliant
WiFi devices to associate with the WX Device. The transmission rate of your WX Device might
be reduced.
• Select 802.11a/n/ac/ax Mixed to allow IEEE 802.11a, IEEE 802.11n, IEEE 802.11ac or IEEE
802.11ax compliant WiFi devices to associate with the WX Device. The transmission rate of
your WX Device might be reduced.
For 6 GHz frequency WiFi devices:
• Select 802.11ax Only to allow only IEEE 802.11ax compliant WiFi devices to associate with
the WX Device.
This option is only available when using WPA2-PSK as the Security Mode and AES Encryption in
Network Setting > Wireless > General. Management frame protection (MFP) helps prevent WiFi
DoS attacks.
Select Disable if you do not want to use MFP.
Select Capable to encrypt management frames of WiFi clients that support MFP. Clients that do
not support MFP will still be allowed to join the WiFi network, but remain unprotected.
Select Required to allow only clients that support MFP to join the WiFi network.
